Force update button
Hello,
Would be cool to add a button to force update a show/movie for a refresh, like Trakt, VIP feature.

A better Android app that allows to rate content
Existing app is a good companion, but it could be better. I think the only thing that can be improved is the way you rate content in the app. For example, if you want to rate an episode, you need to click that episode and it will open the listing on the web page (which is actually bugged, scrolling doesn't work sometimes). Instead, you can create a new UI for the episode and any other content that can be rated.

Share episode rate and comments to Twitter
I know you recently improved the Twitter integration by supporting rate sharing, but it would be great to improve this further by sharing TV episodes rate and comments, just like Trakt TV. Trakt also allows to rate single seasons, so it could be a good addition.

JustWatch integration
It would be great if you integrate JustWatch to know where to watch content. Some apps like Showly show this information directly, but others take you to a JustWatch search result instead.

Add a playlist/subscribe feature for things like the MCU that have many titles being released that should be watched in a certain order.
It would be nice if you could choose to have new titles from the MCU automatically added to your watchlist. Also if you could view a calendar specifically of that universe to make sure you are watching in the right order. For example, the DC superhero shows from the CW overlap episode by episode instead of season by season, which can be a nightmare to manage. Or another example would be Star Wars Clone Wars which inexplicably released episodes out of order, but someone in the Simkl community could create a playlist that has the shows in the right order.

Mark watched first episode of a show
In the mobile app, I can mark an episode as watched from the Watching list. Nice! But it doesn't work for the first episode of a show: It doesn't open the expanded view with the Mark as Watched button, but immediately opens the show details where I have to manually go to the season list, then the episode list, then mark the first one as watched. Only after that will the quick mark watched feature work.

Ratings/Stars should also have a word value like MAL
When you hover over the stars to rate a show, the associated star should also have a word value just like in MAL.
e.g.
10* Masterpiece
9* Great
8* Very good
7* Good
6* Fine
5* Average
4* Bad
3* Very Bad
2* Horrible
1* Appalling3 votes -
Auto drop series after x time
A feature to put series that the users haven't watched after a while to "dropped" this would make the "dropped" status used much more.
Best way would be to let the user decide the "time limit" and if the user wants it or not. It should also only count series that have new aired episodes that the user haven't watched to avoid problems when waiting for a new season.

Mobile Website vs the Mobile App
The mobile website is very aesthetically pleasing to look at but the app is so bland and boring by comparison, I included a side by side pic. Itd be nice if the app was updated to look like the mobile site. Also, please add a way for us to update our watching from the homepage of the mobile site. Currently on the mobile site you have to tap on a show and go to another page to update your watched episodes but we should be able to do that right from the homepage. Underneath each show on the Watch Next…

Implement a Numeral system in our lists in order for us to rank our item(anime,serie or film depending on the list) from most liked toleast
What I want is to be able to make a rank list in each of my lists of anime, series, and films in order to differentiate the ones I like most from the ones I like least, it would only need to be implemented a numeral system in our list so we can rank up or animes, series and films just in our lists in order to differentiate for example two 10 scores from top 1 to top 2 in my list everything in the ranking system would remain the same. see image for better explanation

More info on ended or cancelled shows
After I end a season of a show first thing I want to know is will there be another season.. perhaps a like to sites like ismyshowcancelled.com or similar. Maybe even a feed back on should it be cancelled or why was it cancelled.
Also on web page that asks for rating.. why can’t you link to the show directly to give it the rating.. or rate right there..
Also need choice to remove anime something I don’t use.
44 votesTVDB does not contain such data (full description why the show was canceled). I’ve contacted ismyshowcancelled for additional info if we can use their data. Will see if they agree to share it.

Android widget with to do list
Can we get an android widget that can give us quick access to our list of shows that are left to be watch.
Should update when a show airs and allow for us to mark shows watched straight from the widget.
TV Show Faves had this option and now that they are shutting down this was the option i really liked and not many others offer this.9 votes -
Full support for Spanish language and Bilingual content
Spanish is the fastest growing language in the USA and is also one of the fastest growing languages in the world. A great deal of this content is available with English audio or subtitles.
Many streaming platforms are adding a lot of Spanish and/or Bilingual content (Netflix, Disney+, Hulu, etc.) due to the increase in market share.
This is a great way to increase both Simkl's content and user base!
With more than 37 million speakers, Spanish is by far the most spoken non-English language in the U.S. today among people ages 5 and older. It is also one of…1 vote -
